Provided by Julie Chiou

Categories     Main Entree

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup your favorite BBQ sauce ((see notes below))
1 tablespoon olive oil
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 medium onion (diced)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
2/3 cups frozen corn (thawed)
15 ounce can black beans (drained and rinsed)
3/4 cup short-grain white rice (NOT quick/minute rice)
3 cups chicken stock
1 cup freshly shredded colby jack cheese
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Avocado, diced tomatoes, and parsley or cilantro, for topping

Steps:

  • In a large deep skillet or pot, add olive oil and place over medium-high heat. Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper then brown chicken on both sides. Using a pastry brush, brush a generous amount of BBQ sauce onto the chicken on both sides while it is browning. Remove chicken from skillet once halfway cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside on a plate.
  • In the same skillet, add onion and garlic. Cook until softened then add corn and black beans. Toss to incorporate. Add the rice to the skillet and gently "toast" it for a couple minutes.
  • Carefully pour the chicken stock in the skillet and add the remaining BBQ sauce into the skillet. Stir to incorporate completely. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Bring to a boil and then reduce to a medium-low heat. Place chicken back into skillet and nestled into the rice and liquid. Cook covered for 30 minutes, or until rice is completely cooked through.
  • Add cheese on top and cover skillet to melt. Once cheese has melted, remove skillet from heat and top with avocado, diced tomato, and parsley or cilantro, if desired.

BBQ CHICKEN AND RICE

Make and share this BBQ Chicken and Rice recipe from Food.com.

Provided by CrapScreamer

Categories     Chicken

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (12 ounce) jar barbecue sauce ("KC Masterpiece Hickory" is great, so is "Famous Dave's")
4 chicken breasts
2 cups rice
4 cups water

Steps:

  • Pour BBQ Sauce into pan, fill the empty bottle with tap water (or something fancier if you're"that way") and pour about half of it into the pan as well.
  • Stir until blended over low-medium heat.
  • Add thawed chicken.
  • Cook chicken and sauce while stirring over medium heat until chicken is done, then turn down to low.
  • Keep an eye on it and add more water from the bottle if needed.
  • For rice, just add rice and water to a pan with a tight-fitting lid, bring to a boil, stir for a minute, and cook at medium heat for 30 minutes while COVERED.
  • when everything's done, pile it on a plate and eat it up.
  • Sometimes I add a dash or two of"Kick-Yo-Ass" hot-sauce for a little spice.

Tips:

  • Use quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your tostadas taste their best. Look for ripe tomatoes, crispy lettuce, and juicy chicken.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs will help it stay moist and tender while cooking.
  • Cook the chicken properly: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it is safe to eat.
  • Use fresh tortillas: Fresh tortillas will make your tostadas crispy and delicious. If you can't find fresh tortillas, you can warm store-bought tortillas in a skillet or oven to make them more pliable.
  • Load up the tostadas: Don't be shy when loading up your tostadas with toppings. The more toppings, the better!
  • Serve immediately: Tostadas are best served immediately after they are assembled. This will prevent the tortillas from getting soggy.
